When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should be observed, including the following: 

THIS APPLIANCE HAS A 

POLARIZED PLUG

polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified 
electrician to install a proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
